The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has released the 2021 National Preparedness Report which uses the events of 2020 to offer insights to support decisions about preparedness program priorities, resource allocation, and actions that can create more resilient communities.
The report includes a discussion of the risks the Nation faces—Catastrophic Risk, Systemic Risk, and Emerging Risk—and how those risks drive the Nation’s capability requirements; a high-level overview of the Nation’s current posture and discussion of how capabilities are used to manage risk; and management opportunities with suggestions for building capabilities to address risks.
